Hello all. We bought a 100 sensor license for PRTG and I am loving this software. I have setup the channels, etc and even created a map. But the one thing I cannot seem to understand is the channel limits. We have a 20mg metroE for our internet and the when I look at the table, it looks like the limit is 329,277 kbits. I have no idea where this value is pulling from nor do I know how to change it.. I am assuming I need to change this to 200,000 but I cannot figure out how as all of my limits and warning are going to be way off.

For your main Channel Unit Configuration you can go into the Enterprise Console and click on PRTG Monitoring and then go to Settings.At the bottom you will see Channel Unit Configuration where you can edit what unit you want the graphs to show up in.

Then if you go to either your group or the node itself you can click on Notifications and Object Triggers and set your alert to whatever you need so something like "When Total Channel is Above 15Mbps for at least 180 seconds perform "Email to you"

This is what I have done and what's worked well for me, there could be a better way to accomplish this.

Sean: thank you very much. I was able to set my limits to mb and that helped out a lot. But I still do not see where I can set the values for my port sensors.

Example: we are using a Fortigate firewall and on the WAN port, I am monitor the traffic. Since I only have a 20mg pipe, I would think I would want the limit to be 20mb. My limit shows 329mb. I have no idea where the 329 came from nor do I know how to edit it.

Check out the screenshot, in PRTG if you do not have groups everything will be inherited from the root down. You can go directly to your Fortigate in PRTG and click on Notifications. Then change the inherit triggers from parent object(s) and create your own state and speed triggers.
